The American Board of Radiology (ABR) is seeking interested candidates to serve on its Board of Governors. The Board of Governors discharges the fiduciary duties of the Board through its oversight of the business and affairs of the ABR.

Interested candidates must be board certified by the ABR and willing to participate in Continuing Certification (MOC). Those from nonacademic practice environments are especially encouraged to apply.

- Offer insight and expertise reflecting a firm understanding of, and support for, the ABR’s mission.
Candidates must have:
- A general understanding of medical education, training, and certification.
- Knowledge and experience that supplements that otherwise represented on the Board of Governors, such as practice management, business and finance, health policy, information technology used in health care settings, health system management, quality improvement science, outcomes research, patient advocacy, or patient communication/satisfaction.
- Skills and experience that will help the ABR achieve its strategic agenda.
